I never thought that my loves of my life would be 9 Thai boys. All it took was three short weeks. These boys have stolen our hearts.
While I've been in Thailand, my team and I have worked at Abba House Foundation, which is a home for boys and girls who have been trafficked in downtown Chiang Mai, Thailand. They have been forced to sell their bodies for food. They have been abused and treated unfairly. The boys are between the ages of 10-23. Our ministry this month was to teach the boys for three hours each day. What we really did was laugh, play, and love on 9 amazing boys.
We had the chance to take the boys to the zoo! This was a day for the boys to feel like a normal kid who didn't have their childhood and innocence taking from them. The boys were so full of joy all day long. There was so much laughter. This was a day to remember.
The boys were so well behaved during the whole day, it didn't seem like we were with nine teenage boys. Their eating habits proved that we were indeed with teenage boys because after each exhibit we had to stop so that they could get snacks.
This month has been amazing. We have had the chance to spend time with some of the sweetest boys. They have probably changed our lives more than we changed them. This will be a month to remember.
